2. What questions do you have that haven't been answered about the senior project? This can be about the senior project in general, any components or about a presentation topic you saw or what they said.
·
What
is the time range to where we are allowed to change our topic?
·
Can
we have more than one mentor?
·
How
would I go about finding a mentor at Cal Poly?
·
What
exactly are the independent components?
·
Are
we allowed to pick who we present to for our final presentation?
3. What has the most important part of the senior project based on what you are seeing in the 2-hour presentations?
Based
on what I saw in most of the senior presentations I viewed was the mentorship
aspect of the entire project. Although, the presentations included large
amounts of information on that specific topic that was mostly gathered through research,
when the presenter spoke about their mentorship and how it related to their
answer to their EQ I felt it was the most helpful part in answering the EQ. Essentially
because through mentorship you can gain firsthand experience in the field you’re
interested in. That firsthand experience I believe is far more useful than anything
you can find online or in a book
4. What topic are you considering doing and why?
I am considering
one of two topics, business law or event planning for pediatric oncology
patients.
·
I
have always been interested in the law field and what it entails, especially
when you are faced with decisions that require strategic planning in order to
result in a favorable outcome for both parties. In addition to this interest,
the schooling is minimal yet rigorous which I believe will pay itself back in
little time.
·
Event
planning for pediatric oncology however is a topic a little more personal to me.
I have had friends diagnosed with cancer at young ages and what really helped
in their treatment process were the events and fundraisers planned by people
like my aunt who is currently in this field with Kaiser Permeate in L.A. I
would like to make that change in family’s lives and better their children’s
lives for whatever time they have left
5. What are you doing for your summer mentorship?
I plan on acquiring
two different mentorships this summer. One of which will be at a law firm that
a family friend is employed at, and hopefully obtain an internship throughout
the course of my senior year at this law firm at which I will study under the
supervision of a lawyer who specializes in business contracts.
The second
mentorship I would like to obtain is one with the Pediatric event planning department
at Kaiser Permeate with Sandy Marman and begin to learn exactly what the
position entails and the actual effect it has on the patients.
